Additional information
This is the electrostatic 2D model of a microstrip. Only one half of the system is represented. Symmetry is accounted for by means of a Neumann boudary condition (dn=0) on the symmetry axis. The voltage of the electrode, which is not part the domain of analysis, is set to 1mV and is thus imposed as a Dirichlet boundary condition. The electrode is laid on a dielectric slab of relative dielectric permeability equal to 9.8, and which is grounded on its lower face.
